Just got back from a 5-day cycling trip, the Ecotrip 2006 (you can find more information about the Ecotrip here). I was planning to do the Ecotrip with my velomobile, but since the weather forecast looked good, I decided to take my wife's Kettwiesel + trailer instead. Turned out to be a good decission, wheather turned out to be excellent, we only had one hour of rain during our whole trip.
The group consisted of 30 people, riding all kinds of different bicycles : mostly 2 wheel recumbents, but also 3 trikes, 2 regular bikes, 1 freight bicycle, 1 velomobile and 1 rowing bike. We left on monday morning and I got back on friday night, with 310 miles on my cycling computer. For those who'd like to see more, you can find my pictures of the trip here.

Since the panniers I used to have on my XP are now on my wifes trike and are staying there, I went shopping for a new set yesterday. I did find an interesting one from FASTRIDER, which I mounted on my XP last night. It has reflecting stitching on all sides and has several smaller pockets, which is easy to put smaller stuff in. Now my cell phone and keys can be put in the smaller outside pockets, making it easier to access. It also has a plastic cover in case it starts raining.
